Tulsi's key chemical components are Linalool, caryophyllyne, Oleanolic acid, and Rosmalinic acid. Tulsi standardisation has been used in modern science. Two active ingredients are eugenol (essential oil) and ursolic acid (acide). A diaphoretic, anti-periodic, and anti-bronchitis leaf. A decoction of the leaves can treat coughs, malaise, and colds. Not only is it moisturising. Flowers' oils can treat ringworm. Because of its antibacterial and antifungal characteristics, Ocimum sanctum has been used in numerous therapeutic trials.
